JSW Renewable Energy Vijayanagar, a subsidiary of JSW Energy, has commenced operations at its 225 MW solar plant at Vijayanagar in Karnataka, which is part of earlier announced projects. JSW Energy had earlier signed agreements with group firm JSW Steel to develop 958 MW solar and wind projects under a 25-year power purchase agreement, it said in a statement.
“Commencement of operations at the plant within the scheduled timelines is a key landmark for the company and testament to its world-class project execution capabilities. In the coming months, we remain upbeat to commence operations of our under-construction pipeline of 2GW wind projects, in phases. We will continue to contribute meaningfully in achieving India’s renewable capacity-add and net-zero ambition driven targets,” JSW Energy joint managing director and chief executive officer Prashant Jain said.
